Reflections for Police Officer Charles M. Whites, Jr.

"The Final Inspection"
The policeman stood and faced his God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, policeman.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My church have you been true?"
The policeman squared his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't,
Because those of us who carry badges can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
and at times my talk was rough,
and sometimes I've been violent,
Because the streets are awfully tough.
But I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep....
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't.....I'll understand.
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod.
As the policeman waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, policeman,
You've borne your burdens well.
Come walk a beat on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in hell."

My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to Whites' family, and the City of Round Rock Police Department. I served with the Round Rock Police Department from 1994-2003, as a Police Officer, Field Training Officer, SWAT Team Officer, and as a Patrol Sergeant, and had the pleasure of being one of Charles' Field Training Officers, when Charles first began his career at the City of Round Rock Police Department, and I had the opportunity to get to know Charles. Charles was intelligent, professional, dedicated, hard-working, kind, and as good a man, as he was a police officer. He will truly be missed. Rest in peace my friend.
